play sound based on the number of times listed on a textfield - ios

Question

My code below is has a textfield and a sound function. I would like the user to have the sound file be played the number of times the int is in the textfield when the button is pressed.
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet var sam : UITextField!
var bombSoundEffect: AVAudioPlayer?
func judo(){
let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "example.mp3", ofType:nil)!
let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: path)
do {
bombSoundEffect = try AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: url)
bombSoundEffect?.play()
} catch {
// couldn't load file :(
}
}
}

Answer 1

Please use numberOfLoops:
"numberOfLoops" is the number of times that the sound will return to the beginning upon reaching the end.
A value of zero means to play the sound just once.
A value of one will result in playing the sound twice, and so on..
Any negative number will loop indefinitely until stopped.
bombSoundEffect.numberOfLoops = 1
You can do this in another way with some delay:
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var textField: UITextField!
var player = AVAudioPlayer()
var timer = Timer()
var count: Int = 0
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
#IBAction func playAction(_ sender: Any) {
let alertSound = URL(fileURLWithPath: Bundle.main.path(forResource: "stereo", ofType: "wav")!)
do {
player = try AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: alertSound)
} catch {
print("No sound found by URL")
}
if let textValue = self.textField.text, let inputNumber = Int(textValue), inputNumber > 0 {
playWith(repeatCount: inputNumber)
} else {
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "Alert", message: "Please enter number.", preferredStyle: .alert)
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: UIAlertActionStyle.cancel, handler: nil))
self.present(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
func playWith(repeatCount: Int) {
player.play()
self.timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 0.36, repeats: true, block: { (timer) in
self.count += 1
print(self.count)
if self.count != repeatCount {
self.player.play()
} else {
self.count = 0
self.player.stop()
self.timer.invalidate()
}
})
}
}
This is exactly what you want. In this demo, you have to enter input number in the text field and after that sound will play input number times.
If you want that time interval will also dynamic means time interval will also come from textField2 then use this method:
func playWith(repeatCount: Int) {
var timeInterval = 0.36
if let textValue = self.textField2.text, let inputNumber = Double(textValue), inputNumber > 0 {
timeInterval = inputNumber
}
player.play()
self.timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: timeInterval, repeats: true, block: { (timer) in
self.count += 1
print(self.count)
if self.count != repeatCount {
self.player.play()
} else {
self.count = 0
self.player.stop()
self.timer.invalidate()
}
})
}
